Object detection device
First Claim
1. An object detection device which is mounted in a host-vehicle and detects an object in the vicinity of the host-vehicle, the object detection device comprising:
- a vehicle state detection unit that acquires vehicle state information of the host-vehicle;
a host-vehicle state prediction unit that predicts a target route of the host-vehicle on the basis of the acquired vehicle state information of the host-vehicle;
a detection unit that detects the object;
a road information acquisition unit that acquires information regarding a road including regions wherein a traffic rule applies uniformly in each region;
a determination unit that determines whether the target route of the host-vehicle corresponds to a first path having a possibility where the target route of the host-vehicle interferes with a route of the object or a second path that does not interfere with the route of the object on the basis of the information regarding the road and the target route of the host-vehicle;
a detection characteristic control unit that calculates a parameter on the basis of a determination result by the determination unit;
wherein the detection unit that detects the object uses the calculated parameter of the detection characteristic control unit.

Abstract
An object detection device can acquire information of an object in the vicinity of a host-vehicle for appropriate traveling assistance. An object detection device 1 includes a vehicle state detection section 2, an environmental situation acquisition section 3, a road information acquisition section 4, a detection control section 6, and a detection section 7. A host-vehicle state prediction section 61 acquires a target state of a host-vehicle 81. The detection section 7 detects an object. A parameter setting section 63 switches the detection characteristic of the object in the detection section 7 in accordance with the target state.
